Adding photos
« Thread Started on Nov 24, 2004, 11:08am »

If you want to add a photo to your message, you need to click on the picture icon when you are in the posting mode. It's the 4th one from the right. You will then get something that looks like this: [ img]URL[/img ] I had to space it out so it would show up in the message. Now, where you see the URL, you need to highlight that and add your picture link there, remember to not leave any spaces in this. You can then preview your post to see if it works or post it.

If you have pictures somewhere on the internet that you plan on using, just make some links to them in a word program and paste them in the middle where you highlighted the URL.

The best place I have found to link from with free service to store your photos is at www.photobucket.com Just go there and sign up for the free service, make yourself an album and upload your pictures to that album. Then open the picture that you want to use, do a right click on it and select “properties”. A pop up box will appear and you will see the URL in the box, highlight it and do a right click and select copy. Then paste this URL into a word document so you will have it at hand. I added all mine onto one document, so I can select any that I want to insert a picture anytime I’m online. If you set the free account up with all the links, then when you open the photo in your album, you can just copy the link that has in front of the link and paste it in the message here. be sure to copy the entire link.

Another great site for storing photos for free so that you may link to them and add them to a message post if www.flickr.com

And then just add a photo like this to the message.
